RX 80 W L.V. Women's Ski Boots

About the Lange RX 80 W L.V.

The RX W series takes all the performance of Lange's popular RX range of ski boots and tweaks them to better suit women's anatomy. Comprising of amazingly versatile boots in a variety of fit's and flexes, this series delivers Lange's unique feel and performance to a wide range of skiers.

With a soft flex of 80, The 2019 RX W L.V. 80 is a fairly accessible boot. We think the flex on this boot will work best for beginners, intermediates and less aggressive skiers. However, particularly given the unique feel of Lange boots, this boot could also work well for advanced and ambitious intermediate skiers with lighter builds. The L.V. in the title stands for low volume and means these women's ski boots are perfect for those skiers with narrow feet looking for that perfect snug fit.

Dual Core technology is what sets Lange boots apart from the competition. Rather than joining together various sections of different plastics, Lange boots use a dual injection process to form two solid pieces of the boot's shell, the cuff and the clog. In each of these sections, two different densities of plastic are injected, with more rigid plastics in areas of high power transmission and softer plastics in areas associated with comfort and fit such as the ankle and lower leg. The result is a strong boot that eliminates any unnecessary material seams while promoting comfort and precision simultaneously.

This boot uses Lange's Dual 3D Liner Sport. With 60% of the liner being thermo mouldable, it can be shaped around the skiers foot in store to help achieve that perfect comfort fit. The specific placement of two densities of foam within the liner also improve precision and control when you're out on the slopes. For the women's series, these liners receive some updates! Shin Control is an asymmetric shape to the liners tongue which helps direct and distribute pressure into the boot's flex. This improves power transmission into the skis tip and edges, ultimately allowing for improved ski control, as well as improving comfort. Furthermore, Thinsulate insulation inside the liner helps keep your toes warm even on the coldest days.

We'd recommend the RX W 80 L.V. from Lange as one of the best options available for 2019 for any women who need a narrow, close fit but with a flex that's accessible and not overpowering.
